Buffalo Bills at Philadelphia Eagles Betting Picks This Week
Despite not playing an overwhelming schedule over the last five weeks, the Bills have dropped three of their last five contests. On offense, Buffalo has turned the ball over far too often. That has led to them having a downturn in scoring from earlier in the season. Defensively, critical injuries at each level of the defense have resulted in a defense that was excellent, now being mediocre against the run and the pass.
On the other side of the ball, the Eagles are in the middle of a five-game stretch in the schedule that consisted solely of teams that were among the preseason favorites to play in the Super Bowl. So far, they beat Dallas by five points and the Chiefs by four. Offensively, they are not as flashy as they were last year, but they still are No. 7 in the league in scoring. On defense, Philly is excellent against the run, but they struggle to slow down opposing passing attacks.
The Bills have the potential to have a dominant passing attack in this matchup. Also, the Eagles should have little trouble moving the ball on the ground or through the air. Even though it's been a season loaded with 'unders,' the probability is that there are over 50 points scored in what should be a competitive game. Betting the 48.5 over has -110 odds. After seemingly getting their offense back on track against the Jets last week, the Bills have a strong chance to go over their 22.5 team total. These odds can be found at DraftKings Sportsbook.
Buffalo Bills at Philadelphia Eagles Best Bet: Bills' team total over 22.5.
Buffalo Bills at Philadelphia Eagles Prediction
After the Bills named Joe Brady their new offensive coordinator last week, Buffalo hung 32 points up on the elite defense of the Jets. Although the Eagles are a solid defense, they don't have nearly the coverage ability that New York had. Look for Buffalo to attack the struggling secondary of Philly as Josh Allen builds on last week's three-touchdown performance. Of course, the Eagles are always up for a shootout. Between D'Andre Swift on the ground along with Jalen Hurts throwing to A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith, we will likely see plenty of offensive fireworks. I predict the Eagles win this game, 27-24.
